Portal:Mitt Romney


Single person portal predating the portal creation spree. Delete like the many other single person portals discussed. Legacypac (talk) 23:23, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete as most single people are not "broad subject areas" under WP:POG. In this case, it seems to be mainly a navbox portal that provides no real additional navigation benefit over the main article, which portals are supposed to do. Meszzy2  (talk) 09:50, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete I think there are some people who do constitute a "broad topic" per WP:POG, but Romney is known as a US senator, former US state governor and failed presidential candidate, and I don't think that's sufficient.  Hut 8.5  10:17, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I do agree that there are some very influential people who have enough articles to be considered a broad topic. I made sure to say most single people don't instead of all single people. Meszzy2  (talk) 10:34, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * First, he is still alive. Second, while a well known politician, he does not have a lasting legacy or real body of work like say, a famous painter. Third, and most importantly, his article can easily handle in summary form and links everything that falls under the topic of Mitt. I thought Hillary had been deleted but she is still under discussion so I removed her as an example. Legacypac (talk) 10:47, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * But he has a navbox! He must need a portal!! Meszzy2  (talk) 10:55, 14 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Comment  - Old portal, 21 subpages, created 2012-10-05 09:44:47 by User:Edgars2007. A comment by a maintainer, if any, could make the day. Portal:Mitt Romney. Pldx1 (talk) 18:08, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - I think it's already consensus that portals of biographies do not meet WP:POG. I also support the exclusion of Portal:Barack Obama and Portal:Donald Trump.Guilherme Burn (talk) 19:29, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete - The timing of the creation of this heritage portal looks political, but that is not the only concern. If we are to have 100 portals for 100 US Senators, how many portals do we need for Senators in a hundred or so countries that have bicameral legislatures?
